The Watering Hole

Etosha NP, Namibia

Limited Edition of 100

The midday heat of the Etosha salt pan is unforgiving. Each day parades of elephants descend on the watering holes for much needed water and sun protection – covering their large bodies with mud and dirt to help protect against the searing rays of the sun. On this day, I was delighted to see a mother and her calf splashing and playing as the parade drank their full. Splashing mud over her calf, the mother began to make her way to sate her thirst as the baby elephant hopped along to catch up and stay close to her mother. It was a beautiful day, a beautiful scene.

Acrylic Glass Mounted Print, Ready to Hang

This is the premier presentation system for bringing detail, color and tonal range to life in a way that traditional photo framing cannot. In this process the face of the image is mounted to a 1/4" crystal clear acrylic, creating the depth and bold color gamut that is so compelling. An Aluminum subframe is then bonded to the back of the image, giving the feeling of a floating image. Your Acrylic Glass Mounted Print comes ready to hang with all the necessary hardware. (more info)
